B&B Looking For Mature Australian Actress To Play Recurring Role!

25
Ivy’s mom ***IS*** named Claire – or at least, John called her that in a conversation with Eric. Of course, B&B conveniently forgot that Taylor’s surname was originally Ashford when they decided to change it to Hamilton, and that Jessica Forrester’s mom was originally said to be Hannah until Barbara Crampton came on as Maggie. Maybe they are getting it right this time?
Jessica Forrester??
Yes—she was played by Maitland Ward and her love interest was Dylan played by Dylan Neal.
Jessica is Ivy’s half sister, played by Maitland Ward on the show from 1994-1996. That was the first time John Forrester was ever mentioned. John and his wife were going through a rough patch in their marriage, so John sent his daughter, Jessica, to stay with her uncle Eric and aunt Stephanie in L.A.

Geraldine Turner, one of Australia’s premier actresses would be PERFECT!!!
I know it says Australian but i believe Leslie Ann Downs could play the part…lol
Was thinking the same thought!
Kylie Minogue!
Half the women from the exceptional to this day “Prisoner: Cell Block H”
Rachel Ward would be perfect She’s beautiful, she’s the right age and she is an Aussie.
Kimberlin Brown. She can do accents.
Emma Samms would be awesome. She’s so beautiful and well known around the world, which would only boost the show’s international popularity.
I agree!
Trishy Dishy was made for it
Olivia Newton John
What about Kim Zimmer?
Love that idea
Not that scene chewer.

Three fine actresses from the Australian primetime soap, “A Place To Call Home” come to mind. First, there is lead Marta Dusseldorp (Sarah Adams) who possesses that tall, cool blonde, regal vibe…she is quite reminiscent of OLTL’s Jessica Tuck….There is also a set of striking brunettes: the vivacious Sara Wiseman who plays (Aunt) Carolyn Bligh and Jenni Baird who portrays the icy villainess (Aunt) Regina Standish. If the show is looking for a real battleaxe, there is also Noni Hazelhurst, who fills a killer role far older than her years as matriarch Elizabeth Bligh, but is also absolutely superb.
